Game development begins with destroying Girls' Frontline.

“Σ(っ°Д°;)っ! President Lin is still right here!”

"Why are you suddenly streaming? Are you releasing a new game?"

"President Su, if you just nod your head, we'll immediately support you to become the King of Xinghuo!!"

Lin Li looked at the comments with a calm expression; he and these silly netizens were quite familiar with each other.

Many players are perfectly normal when you chat with them one-on-one, but they just let loose in the live chat.

Su Shanshan, on the other hand, rarely does live streams and rarely watches live streams.

Seeing a group of people praising her beauty and jokingly suggesting that she take charge of the sparks made her feel a little shy.

Fortunately, Lin Li has already started the process.

"Hello everyone, I'm Lin Li. Happy New Year everyone! Today, Shan Shan and I will be doing a live stream together to play games and chat with you all."

Su Shanshan also came closer to the camera and waved.

Hi everyone! Did you play games a lot during the Spring Festival?

The live chat instantly became even more lively.

During this Spring Festival, the number of online players for almost all games on the Xinghuo platform increased, mainly because everyone stayed at home.

This was also because they were confined to their homes.

Therefore, the number of viewers for Lin Li's live stream also increased dramatically.

Moreover, other languages ​​soon appeared, since it wasn't just domestic players who were following Lin Li's account.

"I played another round of 'Drinking Simulator'!! Please update!!"

"I haven't had a fresh pancake for two days! Even the donkeys in the production team don't dare to rest like this."

"Boss Lin! Could you make a horror game?"

Are there any new IPs planned similar to Battlefront Girls?

Lin Li glanced at the comments and replied with a smile.

"There are no plans to update 'Drinking Simulator' for the time being, but I recently acquired a small studio and they have a new game that is currently in the early stages of development. I can't reveal too much about the gameplay yet, but I can tell you that it's a game about decision-making."

"As for new IPs similar to Battlefront Girls, we are actually preparing for them. For example, The Song of the Saintess is a relatively traditional harem adventure game."

"Of course, all of this takes time."

Just like many people's wives, they keep changing with each new anime season.

Whether it's an IP, a game, or a new theme, it always manages to attract more attention; that's a fact.

"In fact, we have considered exploring new directions for our works, using goddess girls as a theme..."

As the largest original IP of Spark, Battlefront Girls has been successful, and many people have thought about making moe-fication themed works based on it.

However, with the proliferation of ship girls and gun girls, by 20...

The "moe-fication" theme is no longer as popular.

However, it's not to say that this path is completely unfeasible. For example, Lin Li once thought about making a game based on the theme of Goddess Girl. In a sense, the FATE series can also be understood as a variant of Goddess Girl.

As soon as Lin Ligang opened his mouth, the comments section started buzzing with discussion.

"A goddess girl! I'm all for this theme!"

"Please include deities from Chinese mythology! Like Chang'e!"

Is the battle system still based on cards?

"...This subject matter, the plot must be difficult to develop, right?"

Lin Li looked at the comments and responded with a smile.

"That was just a casual remark; we haven't confirmed it yet..."

After chatting for a while, Lin Li adjusted the position of the camera.

"Alright, let's get right to the main event today. I'll take you all to try out our brand new game in the Galaxy Paradise IP, Galaxy Paradise: Survival!!"

He then applauded himself.

Su Shanshan helped Lin Li open the game.

As the familiar, all-too-familiar logo of falling sparks flashed across the screen at the beginning of the game, the game quickly entered the menu.

The main interface of Galaxy Park: Survival is very clean.

On the left side of the game screen is a slowly rotating planet, and the camera is positioned roughly like a satellite view.

On the right side of the game screen are the usual start game, load save, graphics options, and art gallery. After turning the game screen to its highest level, Lin Li couldn't wait to return to the menu and click start game.

Don't tell me.

Because Lin Li hadn't put much effort into this project, and he didn't even know how long ago it had been since he last followed up on it, he was actually quite unfamiliar with the game.

But unfamiliarity brings anticipation.

After the game started, the screen began to plummet rapidly.

Then the camera switches to look from the ground to the sky, and an arc-shaped line falls from the sky, which is obviously where the player is.

as predicted.

The next second, a loud bang occurred.

The player wakes up in a return capsule.

Where...where am I?

Where is this?

[That's strange, I don't remember anything. Was it because of the impact?]

As the familiar speech bubble appeared above the protagonist's head, the number of English-speaking players in the comments section suddenly increased.

Clearly, this iconic feature brought a knowing smile to the faces of many players who had played Galaxy Park: Discovery.

Next.

Lin Li can then begin controlling the character.

This is the same scene that appeared in the previous demo, but in the previous demo, the player was next to an abandoned tower.

Now, next to the player is a crashed landing pod.

Lin Li controlled his character to climb out of the return capsule, looked around, and found himself surrounded by desolate ruins.

Chapter 530 The Town Where People Create Scenery

"The atmosphere created in this scene is quite good. The abandoned landing pod, the desolate environment, and the subtle sense of oppression all make people feel that this world is full of unknown dangers."

The comments section quickly filled with replies.

Lin Li smiled and responded.

"Don't worry, we'll go take a look right away."

He controlled his character back to the landing pod and began searching. Soon, he found some basic survival supplies.

A holy sword of physics, a bottle of water, and a few compressed biscuits.

“These things may not seem like much, but in survival games, every resource is crucial.”

Lin Li put the supplies into his backpack and handed the handle to Su Shanshan.

"Let's go. Next, we'll find a safe place to set up camp, and then we can slowly explore this world."

The live stream was meant to help Su Shanshan pass the time, so after getting familiar with it for a bit, Lin Li handed the controller to her.

Su Shanshan took the controller, a hint of excitement on her face.

"Okay, I'll give it a try! But don't complain about how bad I am at it."

Lin Li smiled and waved his hand.

"Don't worry, if you die, you die. You can always use a resurrection coin."

As mentioned before, Paradise: Discovery still uses revive coins as the payment method, but the number of times you can revive on the spot in each game is still limited.

This approach is primarily designed to lower the barrier to entry for players, and the longer a player plays, the more likely they are to choose to revive.

This entire business model has already been validated once in the previous game, The Park: Discovery.

Of course, players can choose to revive at a designated revival point instead of staying on the spot, which is free. However, if they choose to revive at a revival point, all their items will be lost.

It's like starting from scratch.

However, the system itself doesn't have a significant impact on the gaming experience.

Su Shanshan controlled her character to leave the landing pod and walk towards a pile of ruins in the distance.

Although her skills were a bit rusty, she quickly adapted to the game's rhythm. Various dilapidated buildings and abandoned machinery were scattered in the ruins, and occasionally some strange creatures could be seen wandering in the distance.

“These creatures don’t look friendly; we need to be careful.”

Through the bubbles above the protagonist's head, Su Shanshan's main theme is to be low-key and cautious. She has collected a lot of random things in her backpack, but her equipment has hardly been upgraded.

I simply set up a tent following the system's prompts.

Tents are the most basic form of shelter in the game.

Players can revive for free here, rest, store supplies, and even craft some simple tools.

With the respawn point available, Su Shanshan became noticeably bolder.

They soon traveled south and arrived at a town.

"There's actually a town here!?"

"Of course there are towns. This is Galaxy Paradise, not the apocalypse."

The biggest difference between Paradise: Survival and other survival games is that the setting of Paradise is an abandoned planet. Although the planet is abandoned, it is still some distance away from the post-apocalyptic world.

Moreover, it is the earliest work in the timeline among all IP works.

The Paradise Star in Paradise Survival is more "fairytale-like" than the main game, Galaxy Paradise.

Paradise Survival is more of a dark "fairy tale".

for example.

As a theme park, Paradise Star possesses a technology similar to mind control, which is the technology encountered by players in the main game, Galaxy Paradise, when rescuing Zoe.

However, in the main game, this technology gives players the opportunity to become heroes.

However, players of Paradise Survival will discover that some locals are also using these mind-control areas to do disgusting and even inhumane things.

In Paradise Survival, there is no main storyline. The core gameplay revolves around constantly "setting things right" while ensuring the player's survival.

For example, take the town that Su Shanshan is currently in as an example. This town looks normal, but as soon as Su Shanshan enters, she feels that something is wrong.

"These people seem a bit strange."

As the protagonist muttered to himself, Su Shanshan also sensed something was wrong.

"Let's go investigate. I have a feeling there's something fishy going on in this town."

Lin Li also felt that something was off about this town.

The two quickly circled the entire town and discovered that although it appeared peaceful and serene, its residents were clearly divided into two "races."

Yes, they are two "races".

Of these, normal residents make up a significant portion, while another group of residents acts like robots, only capable of performing basic physical labor.

Locals call these people "dolls".

Although they are called dolls, these dolls look almost exactly like real people.

It gives you the creeps.

In addition, while searching for the strange events in the town, the two discovered that the town's specialty was quite interesting, a product called "Renjing" (人景).

The two also saw the factory that produces "human scenery".

The so-called "human scenery" is somewhat like a life-size figurine.
